Posted by Bradley in : gambling , add a commentIn today’s Communication on a comprehensive European framework for online gambling the Commission states:
While fully respecting each Member State’s right to determine the regulatory framework for gambling services, the Commission sees significant benefits in the development of a range of authorised gambling opportunities in order to effectively dissuade consumers from using other gambling offers. It is important for authorised operators to be able to offer sufficiently attractive products, because in the absence of credible and sustainable offers consumers will continue to turn to unregulated gambling websites, with the ensuing potentially harmful effects.
